A practical two-bedroom second-floor flat in Comely Bank, well placed for the city centre, Stockbridge and local shops. The sitting room opens onto a private balcony, providing a small outdoor space and a pleasant outlook over established trees. Two double bedrooms and integrated storage give straightforward family or sharer accommodation.
Low-maintenance communal living suits first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors: the property is freehold with residents’ permit parking (one permit) and a below-average annual factor charge of approximately £950. Included fixtures and appliances reduce immediate move-in costs.
Be aware of a few material points: heating is electric (panel and storage radiators) and the EPC is rated F, which may mean higher running costs and potential retrofit work. Access is via a communal stairwell to the second floor (no lift). The communal grounds are modest rather than a private garden.
Overall this is a sensible city flat in a desirable Comely Bank location — good local schools, frequent bus routes and easy access to Haymarket and Waverley — offering an affordable entry to the area or a lettable, low-effort investment with scope to improve energy performance over time.
